Friendship/729 Sky Wing

This rubber is maybe a little bit lighter than traditionnal chinese one, but heavier than euro rubbers. It's not so soft, I would say 40°. It's a good choice for defensive and pushes play, but it's hard to loop with that one. I prefer the classic 729 FX Super.

Pretty good accuracy and chop. :-)

Well this rubber has pretty goog control. I use this for my bh which is good for keeping it in. I just hope it would have been a little bit faster. I thinking about changing this rubber coz it's too slow now and I'm getting used to faster swings. This can be really goog for beginners who want to learn control.

Not bad for a inexpensive tacky rubber. Really light weight. It is so light that compared to DHS Hurricane 2 or Dipper, the Sky Wing is probably 50% lighter. Compared to Avalox AVX Sterco, about 20% lighter. Playability -- surprisingly good for pushes and forehand chops. I played with it for 2 months and it held up fine. The shiny surface dulled and the speed slowed, but spin seems to be fine. Must be the soft sponge, giving rubber somewhat of a hybrid mechanical grip. Control though, became a problem after 2 months. Long distance loops became inconsistent, often netting more due to uneven speed. But heck, still a deal.
